I'll tell you this: one of the best albums I've heard is A Thousand Suns by Linking Park. Besides the music sounding great, they did this cool thing where the end of one song lead to the beginning of another. It was basically all just one or two songs in one album.

Before I had known this, I was always getting irritated at myself because I would never notice the change from one song to another.

Edit:

Linkin Park - A Thousand Suns [Full Album]

Not much of a fan. My brother bought this album long time ago, and it sounded good, so I burnt it to listen to. I really enjoyed how the album was all together that's all.

If it's what the artists are trying to pull...having songs smoothly transition into one another perfectly. Like where it keeps the same outro as a instrumental, and then that outro suddenly goes into the intro of another song.

Pink Floyd's Dark Side of The Moon is the best example of that.

Yeah. "Mylo Xyloto" and Hurts like Heaven do it. And so does A Hopeful Transmission and Don't let it break your heart. I also think that segues into Up with the Birds. Almost all the songs do that really. I couldn't find the first song so I didn't post.

Yeah that album was pretty much awesome. I'll have to listen to their first one tomorrow, I'm off to get some sleep.
There are very few musicians these days that I can actually enjoy, so I'll pass on one of them here,

Because all the other instruments are inferior to the all mighty bass
